I've been out of the country lately, which is why I haven't been around. But I'm going to do my best to hang around for this game thread.

I get to watch about 15 minutes then off to work.

I went ahead and bought a month of MLB.tv so I can watch the game when I get home. Gooooo O's!

Ditto. Nice start by Nick.

Did the same for while I'm away. Turned it on just in time to see Markakis' triple.

I hope JJ got THAT out of his system.

Welcome back.

[Rising O's]

Still watching, in the bottom of the 6th.

Jake's first inning and at other times, fails to follow through, rushing a bit, nerves maybe. His stuff moves enough that he needs to just get it over the plate and let it dance a little more consistently. But he's showing us once again he has the ability to at least be a #3.

Nick hitting the opposite HR was great, its something that he has moved away from since his early days. I hope its here to stay.

[Rising O's]

Great outing for Jake, even if it was against the weak hitting Twins. He looks to be in great shape along with a few other O's.

Nice play by Reynolds coming in on the slow roller to third. Jones with a nice double into the corner. All around nice game. Just a matter of seeing how they give up these 2 runs.
